Well done Sir, even with the help from your Bride and two spawnlings.

[@SteamGeezerUK]

Thanks mate 🙂

I have an unopened bottle of scenery glue but when I've used it all, I'll refill it using this recipe.

[@SteamGeezerUK]

That's usually a good option, plus it saves having to a) recycle a perfectly good container and b) label up a new container 🙂

By a thoroughly rotten coincidence, I watched this just 10 minutes after I mixed myself up some scenery glue - or, at least, watered down PVA. It's a rotten coincidence because I hadn't thought to add isopropyl alcohol to improve the flow. Still, I have a gallon of PVA, so I can just pour some out & add the alcohol... My PVA is builder's grade - will that need more thinning or less? Your medium looked pretty thick.

If I were you, I'd just add a little IPA to what you already made. It really doesn't need a lot. All it does is break the surface tension of the water and let's it flow and soak in better. As for the density, mine comes out somewhere between the consistency of water and milk, so pretty thin.

@@SteamGeezerUK Thanks. It seems to be working anyway.

what, no "hello bird"!? somewhat disappointed. :)

I was worried he'd fly down the stairs and knock everything on the floor and get covered in glue. He's an idiot 🙂
